Karl Rove is an Atheist

by MikeGene

Okay, this has nothing to do with ID or anything; it’s just a bit of hilariously ironic news to me. Christopher Hitchens is asked:

Has anyone in the Bush administration confided in you about being an atheist?

His reply?

Well, I don’t talk that much to them—maybe people think I do. I know something which is known to few but is not a secret. Karl Rove is not a believer, and he doesn’t shout it from the rooftops, but when asked, he answers quite honestly. I think the way he puts it is, “I’m not fortunate enough to be a person of faith.”

    A nice way of putting it.

    I don't understand why people are so threatened by Atheism.



    You believe one thing and I believe another.  Now lets shake hands and get back to work.

    My thing is that he was one of the coordinators of the whole put a Christian fella in the White House and watch the country be saved campaign.  If I were a conservative Christian I would be a little pissed at the manipulative quality of this whole thing.

    Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

    Reminds me of South Park when Cartman forms the Christian rock band:

    Kyle: You dont know anything about Christianity!

    Cartman: I know enough to exploit it.

    Say what you want about Karl Rove, but he's brilliant. I personally hate his guts, but he's a genius. Dont believe me? He got George Bush elected... TWICE. Thats a miracle if I ever did see one.

    You're right. 



    The only thing I can add to that is anyone who thinks evil people are dumb or recognizable is opening themselves up for exploitation.
